Abstract: | Some rare types of small clinoforms found in the latest continental deposits of lowland platform and mountain regions are described. The clinoforms are represented by prodelta deposits of mountain lakes, oblique-bedded horizons of floodplain alluvium of strongly meandering rivers, thick and short lenses of mountain alluvium, and alluvium horizons of great lowland rivers with oblique bedding grading into horizontal bedding. Such structures bear information on paleogeographic, morphological, and lithodynamic features of continental sedimentation. |
